Case Shiller Analysis - When Was The Last Time Your City Was This Low
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
The Case Shiller Report that was released today got me to thinking. The report was ablaze with how the sky is falling and the major media, and myself, jumped right through the hoop.
It did get me to thinking. So I dug into the report and started looking at historical data. I wanted to see how affected markets were. Instead of looking a year out, I wanted to see when the markets were this low before.
Of the cities that I could find, Cleveland’s home prices dropped the most, hitting their February, 2002 levels. Seattle has lost the least with homebuyers in June of 2006 still being on the plus side.
Remember, these are the aggregate numbers, so personal experiences can be different.
